Your chance to own a beautiful Vera Wang dress from her classic LUXE "Iconic" collection. This wedding dress is the Esther style by Vera Wang. I bought this dress in 2020, it has been professionally cleaned and is unaltered. Esther was the dress worn by Ivanka Trump on her wedding day and featured in the show "Gossip Girl."
Illusion sweetheart soft A-Line gown in ivory with three layers of different tiered hand-appliqued Chantilly lace, sheer tulle with floating lace. Traditional bustle, buttons trailing down the entire the back and sewn-in short corset and thin cups that holds the dress very secure - no additional bra needed. Price includes dress - veil not included. I do have the matching Vera Wang bolero that blends seamlessly into the gown for an additional cost. I wore the bolero to my ceremony, and then wore the dress strapless to my reception.
I wore the dress one time, as I purchased it brand new from the preeminent Ever After boutique in Miami, Florida. The dress has been professionally cleaned ($700). However there were some stains along the very very bottom of the hem that could not be removed, or the dress could be damaged. I did not want to re-hem the dress to hide the stains in order to avoid further cost. However, when you re-hem the dress, those marks will not show. There is also very minor make up stains INSIDE the corset that cannot be seen. There is also ONE minor tear along the seam in the second most-inner layer of tulle that you cannot see either. I am more than happy to coordinate a Facetime call to show you any of these issues or discuss the dress more in detail.
Please note the dress is being sold AS IS. The dress is an absolute classic work of art. With the sewn-in short corset, the dress is actually comfortable and not at all difficult to move around in. Perfect to wear at the ceremony and throughout the entire reception! I fell in love with this gown when I saw photos of Ivanka Trump wearing it at her wedding and never imagined that I would find a dress remotely similar, much less find the exact dress and wear it to my own wedding!
